Chapter 300: Who can win the Golden Globe?

"The 2028 European Ballon d'Or awards ceremony will be held in Lisbon, Portugal.... Although the ceremony has not yet started, there are already many rumors that the Argentine football genius Meli Banega will win this year's European Ballon d'Or! He is on A good performance in the Champions League this season was the deciding factor...but Melli himself refused to comment on the rumours ahead of the awards ceremony..."
Seeing the relevant news on TV, Xie Lan turned her head and asked her husband: "Old Hu, why is everyone saying that Merry can win the Golden Globe Award, but our son can't?"
"Meili has the Champions League, which is the most important advantage." Hu Lixin explained.
"Then our son still has an Olympic gold medal!" Xie Lan was a little unconvinced.
"Oh, the weight of the Olympic games is not very important in football... Europeans don't pay much attention to Olympic football. So winning the Olympic gold medal has no effect on the Golden Ball."
Hu Lixin analyzed it for his wife.
"But there is the European Cup this year! Don't you mean that the big year depends on the performance of the competition? What kind of performance did he have in the competition? If the Olympic gold medal is not important, the bronze medal is even less important, right?"
According to convention, in the year when there is a competition, players are asked to consider the performance of the competition.
But this year is special...
"This year's European Cup..." Hu Lixin asked, "Do you think anyone in the Czech team is qualified to win the Ballon d'Or?"
This question stopped Xie Lan.
Yes, there is really no one in the Czech team who is like a superstar...
This year's European Cup is very strange, and the Czech Republic, which no one was optimistic about before the game, finally won the championship.
They exposed a big upset in this European Cup.
The Czech Republic, which is not very strong, relies on its super tactical discipline and execution ability, coupled with its extremely characteristic play style, to be stunned that God blocks and kills God and Buddha blocks Buddha in this European Cup.
In the opening game of the European Cup, they defeated the host French team with a score of 1: , revealing the first upset of this European Cup.
After that, it was even more unpopular all the way, and reached the finals.
In the final the Czech opponent is still the host France.
The hosts, intending to avenge their loss in the opener in the final, bombarded the Czech goal from the very start.
The Czech Republic first relied on an excellent overall defensive strategy to deal with the French team, dragging the game into overtime, and then with their high center Radek Maher's corner kick in the extra time, the score was once again 1: The score beat the French team.
Under everyone's astonishment, they won the European Cup.
Don't look at the Olympic Games, Chinese fans' attention is all on the Olympic Games, but in fact, the traffic of the world football this summer is the dark horse of the Czech national team.
After the Czech team won the championship, the French media mourned everywhere. They criticized the Czech Republic for winning the championship as a retrogression in football, because Czech football has no aesthetics at all, and they relied on two tactics throughout the whole process - placing a bus in front of the goal in defense, and relying on long passes to rush to hang when attacking.
This outdated and backward tactic should have been eliminated from the football world, but unexpectedly it was picked up by the Czech Republic and used in the European Cup, and it also used this backward tactic to beat up many European giants.
France, England and Italy are all victims of the Czech Republic.
The captain of the Czech Republic is their high center Radekmacher, who is 1.98 meters tall and has excellent heading ability. He scored three goals in this European Cup and is the top scorer in the Czech team.
But he was not the primary contributor to the Czech team's championship, or his role was not large enough to overshadow the contributions of other Czech players.
The reason why the Czech team was able to win the championship by surprise is inseparable from their rock-solid defense.
In defense, the Czech team places great emphasis on overall discipline. Like parts on a precision machine, each "part" knows what it should do.
Among them, their central defender and second captain Pavel Nevak is an excellent representative. The central defender is 1.96 meters tall and has excellent heading ability, but the limitation brought by his height is that he turns slowly and is not flexible enough. His main task in the Czech team's defensive system is air defense.
Use his excellent header ability to solve the Czech team's threat above the box.
He just needs to do this one thing well.
As for other defensive work, there are teammates to help him complete.
In order to help him complete the defense better and make up for his shortcomings, the Czech coach Timo Buchtmann specially assigned a long-lost position to the Czech backline - the scavenger.
The nimble scavenger makes up for Nevak's clumsiness and allows Nevak to defend in front with confidence.
In addition to the defenders, the main goalkeeper of the Czech Republic is also the hero that they can win the championship.
Before this European Cup, Jakub Rabina was just a nobody in the Czech domestic league.
With his various high and low blocks in this European Cup, he has attracted the attention of many European teams after trying to keep the Czech national goal.
The goalkeeper, who is 1.97 meters tall and has an arms span of more than 2 meters, has very good physical fitness. At the same time, he is not bulky and very flexible.
The Czech team in this European Cup often needs to face the siege of stronger opponents in the game, but they only conceded two goals. After entering the knockout stage, they even conceded a goal, helping the Czech team to rely on three games: 1: 0 won the European Cup.
Such an outstanding performance helped him rise to the sky, and after the European Cup, he was finally acquired by Leeds City for a transfer fee of 40 million euros.
But whether it is captain center Radek Maher, center defender Pavel Nevak, or goalkeeper Jaku Brabina, they are not the biggest contributors to the Czech Republic's ability to win the championship.
Be sure to find a number one hero, that can only be the team's head coach, German Timo Buchtmann.
He used to be the head coach of the strong Bundesliga team Wissedov. Wisedov's most glorious era was created by him. Under his leadership, Wisedov won the Bundesliga championship and the Europa League.
But that was thirty years ago.
Later, his coaching philosophy gradually failed to keep up with the times. He was dismissed from get out of class in Wissedov and failed to succeed in other teams.
They can only go far away, basically belonging to those who have been "exiled" by German football.
He came to the Czech Republic four years ago and became the head coach of the Czech national team. With iron and blood, this team has been built into a very disciplined
"Iron Army".
In this European Cup, he used outdated tactics combined with the high tactical execution ability and discipline of the Czech players, but created the history and miracle of Czech football.
He is the founder and biggest contributor to the Czech championship.

"But the Ballon d'Or can't be awarded to a manager. The individual abilities of other Czech players are not outstanding at the level of the Ballon d'Or. Meli's individual performance and team results are very good, even if there is no European Cup, except for him Besides, there is no one more worthy of the Ballon d'Or."
Hu Lixin said.
He made a lot of sense.
The European Ballon d'Or is an individual award, so the player's individual performance is more important.
Although Meli does not have the European Cup champion, as long as there are no outstanding players in the European Cup champion Czech national team, Meli is still very likely to win this year's Ballon d'Or.
So is there such a player in the Czech squad?
Honestly, not really.
Because of Buchtmann's tactical characteristics, he built the entire Czech national team into a German-style precision machine.
But every Czech player is just a piece of the machine.
Can parts win the Golden Globe?
Obviously it is inconsistent with the spiritual purpose of the Golden Globe Awards.
The big year with the European Cup was not a good time for a non-European player like Merry to compete for the Ballon d'Or.
But this year's European Cup is a special case.
So among the younger generation of players, Melibanega will most likely be the first to win the top honor of the European Ballon d'Or.
In fact, his wife Xie Lan knows what the husband said. After all, the Chinese media have been hyping up the Golden Globe Awards for the past two days.
The media also asked similar questions:
Why is Merry a Ballon d'Or favourite but Hu Lai, who just beat him at the Olympics, isn't?
We analyzed a wave from various angles.
It is similar to what Hu Lixin said.
In short, there is no Champions League is a hard injury.
The reason why Xie Lan had to ask her husband again was naturally unwilling.
Although Hu Lai won the gold medal in the Olympic Games this time, the gold medal is too small and placed in the honor room, of course, it is not as conspicuous as the Golden Globe Award.
"It was Merry's elimination from the Champions League last season!" Xie Lan complained. "It happened to lose to Merry in the semi-finals. It was like letting Merry step on our son to win the championship!"
Hu Lixin shook his head and smiled: "Actually, even if Hu Lai wins the Champions League, it is not so easy to win the Golden Ball."
"Why?" Xie Lan asked, "Didn't they all win the Champions League?"
"Because he is a Chinese player. As a Chinese player, if you want to win the Golden Ball, you must not only do the same as European and American players, but also do better than them. It's like a 100% score for others. , Chinese players need 150 points in the test to be considered a full score."
"Spray..." Xie Lan imagined and felt very uncomfortable.
But she had to admit that her husband was right.
The Golden Globe Award has always been the patent of European and American players. If a Chinese player suddenly appears and wants to steal the honor belonging to European and American players~EbookFREE.me~ It is really not easy.
Just like China wants to break the monopoly of Europe and the United States in advanced fields such as chip design and manufacturing.
It is impossible to succeed without putting in more effort.
Seeing that his wife was in a low mood, Hu Lixin comforted her: "Even if you don't get the Golden Globe, you can get other honors. For example, the Champions League Golden Boot, your honor room can be refurbished at that time."
Xie Lan sighed: "Forget it, talk is better than nothing"
Hu Lixin smiled: "Your tone of voice makes people hate it. The Champions League Golden Boot is just better than nothing'?"
Xie Lan didn't care about this, she suddenly remembered another thing:
"Then Qingqing should be able to win the Women's Ballon d'Or? She also has a league title, a Champions League title, and an Olympic champion..."
Hu Lixin nodded: "Yes, this year should be a year of great harvest."
Xie Lan slapped: "Then I'll go tell Lao Li, and just put his daughter's trophies and medals in the honor room I made,
Definitely safer than putting it in his house! "
Hu Lixin: ? ? ?
